  • Flow Blog: Embedded Tools Drive Better Loop Tuning

    Properly tuned loops are critical to efficient, effective plant performance. However, constant changes in the plant environment mean that proportional-integral-derivative (PID) tuning cannot be a set-and-forget procedure. This poses a problem for many modern plants, as few have the deep bench of experienced personnel they used to. When loops need tuning, that often means other critical tasks must be put on hold. Today…
  • Flow Blog: The Intelligent Multistage Completion Network – A Straightforward, Reliable Solution to a Complex Problem

    What is an Intelligent Multistage Completion Network? Traditionally, oil and gas operators didn’t have much choice in what data they could gather from a downhole environment. High levels of visibility and control in a reservoir might have felt like a pipe dream for a long time. Fortunately, operators can now access reservoir sandface data and make more informed decisions for optimizing production with the help of an…
